Professional Development Workshops for June

Learning and Development, a division of Talent Management and Organization Development, has openings for workshops taking place in June, the last month of their spring schedule. Here's a brief description of the classes in date order.

Relationship Awareness Theory
Understanding the behavior that governs your interaction with others is the first step in reducing interpersonal conflict. This workshop will provide an understanding of your personal strength in relating to others when things are going well and when faced with disagreement that may produce conflict. Participants will learn more about their personal strengths and how to better leverage those strengths for effective action. Understand how the manner in which we behave during conflict impacts the way others respond to us and, ultimately, our relationships with them. Participants must complete the Strength Deployment Inventory, Portrait of Personal Strengths, and Portrait of Overdone Strengths online assessments one week prior to the workshop. Tuesday, June 2
